・Infrared and Electronic photodissociation spectroscopy Summary ・Infrared and Electronic photodissociation spectroscopy was applied to [C6H6(NH3)n]+ (n=1-5) . ・For the n=1 cluster, both the observed spectra indicated that a new C-N valence bond is formed resulting in the cyclohexadienyl type structure. ・The cyclohexadienyl type cluster can be regarded as the prototype of intermediate in the nucleophilic substitution reactions. +
